This hybrid of two seedlings was registered by
Paul Aden in
1976. According to
The Hosta Handbook by
Mark Zilis (2000), it is "...very similar to 'Neat Splash Rim' and
'Yellow Splash Rim'".
This plant grows into a medium
sized (15
inches high) mound with oblong-elliptic foliage that has a round
base. The leaves are slightly wavy and very shiny underneath.
Bright purple flowers bloom in late July to mid August.
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis
(2009) states that this cultivar "...used to be a common
sight in hosta collections, but it has declined in popularity in
recent years. It shows a strong similarity to stable forms of 'Neat
Splash' and 'Yellow Splash'."
